COMIC BOOK ART EXHIBITED IN L.A.

FINALLY, REAL ART COMES TO LOS ANGELES' ART MUSEUMS.
Hehehe, I'm totally kidding.

But the Hammer and MOCA are having an exhibit on Comic Book artists:
"Masters of the 20th-Century American Comics"

15 artists are spotlighted in the exhibit, all shaped the development of the American comic strip and comic book during the 20th century

Artists I personally dig and have been influenced by directly:
Will Eisner (The Spirit), Harvey Kurtzman (MAD Magazine), R. Crumb (lots of fucked up underground shit),
and the King himself - JACK KIRBY (Marvel!!!!!!!!)

The exhibit is from November 20, 2005 through March 12, 2006 at both the Hammer and Moca simultaneously. More here.
